I'd call it morally reprehensible

Who are these Taxpayers Union people? Sounds like a few ACT members.

As a politician he has every right to question an almost monopoly organisation that is making exorbitant profits from the NZ public.

Exorbitant profit last year was down 11%. EBIT was down 15%. I stand corrected. CEO has to go.

Doesn't worry me who the govt. is. It's just a matter of modifying your modus operandi to reap the benefits. After all, it is Labour, specifically Bill Rowling, who opened my eyes to the world, and allowed me to acquire a reasonably comfortable life style from a very young age. Nowadays I'm past caring, but socialism as preached by current Labour will not take the country in the right direction. That provides me ample opportunity to taunt their advocates for my own amusement.

The opposite of the wrong direction.
